9:01 am
at least twenty two people. killed in egypt. where crowds of attempted to storm. the city also reportedly resulted in the death. and the execution twenty one people accused of stirring up. true. has been perceived as extremely harsh sentence the death sentence for twenty one people this is being met with violent scenes in port side at the moment reports on the ground are saying they're seeing civilians with
9:02 am
that automatic weapon. running around the streets attacking security forces here in cairo the scenes are actually relatively jubilant as the ultras the hardcore people fans see this as very much a victory this is quite a politicized. at the time of the disaster and people said that the security officials themselves had quite a lot to do with the massacre as they let the rival fun club groups meet in the center of the pitch and the blocked access exit routes that four people are saying that really the security officials themselves should be the ones that received this verdict not just the funds as i came to the studio there are. clashes just on the corner of the periphery of to her between protesters and security forces who are throwing rocks at each other here and talk to people still remain in tents they say they will not leave until the president mohamed morsi and makes changes the opposition coalition the national salvation front released for the mind yesterday
9:03 am
including asking asking the president to step down and a national salvation government to take to take over we've seen multiple supposedly multiple deaths in places across the country as well to kill or in suicide so what we're seeing yesterday really was a lot of anger against the president and his government on the second anniversary of the uprising and the protests sit ins and possible violence across the country added to that as well. and the holiday shopping is the editor of the could online newspaper he says the people of egypt have grown increasingly disillusioned with the politics of the muslim brotherhood. people who voted for him to give him a good chance. at the last. for most of the people who are out in the streets to the people in egypt now to realize that. religion and politics should be mixed clearly and some.
9:04 am
would use slam and religion to get the support of the people and once they are being would in a very very differently from what the been promising and that's part one of the reasons of their anger if you are seeing to the industry to egypt and americans want to ensure and secure their interests in egypt but now the leader of the united states nor morsi himself much say in what's happening today the people of egypt who are back in the streets. free of the regime. now egypt was at the forefront of the pro-democracy uprisings in the middle east the us supported the revolts hoping that barack obama's promise of change for the region would bear fruit however after a wave of anti-american protests all the hopes his famous cairo speech try to
9:05 am
inspire have been dashed. investigates why i've come here to cairo to seek a new beginning between the united states and muslims around the world words of promise that field of region with hope. that as obama begins his second term in office his critics failed him on a first term f.-l. hotshot of expectations progress on peace between israelis and palestinians remain stored the promised economic development of afghanistan never took root. and american relations with post mubarak egypt deteriorated and i didn't just the us and elegance community has more or less thought that it was in control of something called the muslim brotherhood and they brought them from egypt into saudi arabia and i think they thought they could just break out of that wasn't what about how they could have. my last r.t. or. their fight now that i'm not leaking oil also. in libya the u.s.
9:06 am
supported the intervention by nato and its allies touting it as a great advance for security entry and rights but the fallout from it ended with the death of the american ambassador and three other members of his staff the united states was overselling their so-called triumph over al-qaeda in a way that was really quite dishonest and dangerous because it was essentially setting the united states up for situations where. elsewhere was still not just strong but getting stronger and was getting stronger because of policies that the united states had followed and it was washington's politics that did little to win palestinians over to obama's side washington was against the upgraded status of palestine at the united nations angering but not surprising aniston's i would say that the people in general.
9:07 am
stop thinking of him as a somebody who will do. us any favor or any good we realize that all our expectations which were very high turned out to be zero as a matter of fact islamophobia inside the united states is on the increase helped in no small part of by the growing negative portrayal of the muslim world in the media and hollywood recent polls show overall confidence in obama has dropped especially in muslim countries we were declined by nine percent in three years global approval of his international policies is also decreased from a positive rating of thirty four percent in the muslim world in two thousand and nine to just fifteen percent in two thousand and twelve obama came just to beautified the ugly face that bush left it's american interests that lead american presidents the only difference is that while one president smiles the other doesn't
9:08 am
and the american system and the american interest in the middle east are the problem it's not a personal issue it is it is a political issue and that's why i didn't have a lot of hope the arab antipathy has not been softened by obama's support for the arab spring or his military withdrawal from iraq few american presidents have lost a good standing with the arab world as quickly and as significantly as a bomber for him now to a new trust in america he'll have to do more than just promise a new beginning in a cairo speech policy r.t. tel aviv. and r.t. is coming to you live from moscow with a former cia officer john kiriakou he's been sentenced to two and a half years behind bars for leaking classified intelligence his supporters of called for a sentence to be reduced saying the real reason for his punishment was because he went public on washington's torture tactics artie's guy nature kind of reports. the cia veteran the former chief of counterterrorism operations in pakistan john
9:09 am
kiriakou will spend thirty months in prison for leaking the identity of an agent but before he was prosecuted mr kitty affleck had been actively speaking out against torture and now he and his supporters believe that he was prosecuted for coming clean over torture practices in the cia it started with an investigation into how military defense attorneys acquired tunnel bay obtained the names and photographs of cia personnel as ortiz eventually tracked one name back to a reporter who had spoken to mr. rather than risk a far longer prison term and because he could no longer afford his legal fees and stick it out when a cobra agreed to plead guilty to one of the five charges against him violating the intelligence identities protection act by emailing the name of a covert cia officer to a freelance reporter who never even published it there's something very disturbing about this case had john key actually engaged in torture he wouldn't be in any trouble at all he never even would have been investigated because he talked about
9:10 am
torture with reporters he was going to prison the fact of the matter is that the u.s. government has classified everything related to its torture practices which means nobody can be prosecuted for human rights violations that were systematic of systematically committed a crime common here is what mr get out will says about that i never tortured anybody but i'm getting to prison while the torture is in the layers of people who brood and the people who deceived and the man who destroyed the tapes will never sees justice and that's the saddest part of the story. this agrees ration has prosecuted more whistleblowers than all previous administrations combined while protecting those who have committed torture who have ordered torture behind this wall of classification contrary to popular belief president obama didn't stop the united states from torturing can just stop it from portraying on his watch through an executive order which means that the us could be only another executive order
9:11 am
away from some other president or vice president deciding to torture again. both are innocuous civil adman's believes that insiders will be targeted by unpunished for making a stand as long as the us authorities continue to cover up their wrong doing we do see this type of witch hunt action against those who lead you formation that exposes either government criminality or government waste fraud abuse so this is a selective behind the haven't had a single case where whistleblowers have been successful by pursuing bill so-called channels reading remedies or solutions to these very big problems or wrongdoings so when you have no channels there is only one option and that is to get information and put it before the public whether through websites such as weak you leaks or public citizens journalists because as you know mainstream media they act
9:12 am
as the extension of the government here in the united states there are no other channels to go to and the public has no right to know and the gag is a very important key point the public and i'm not talking about only people here in the united states but all over the world because people are being a fact that they are doing once we're being criminalized. thanks for joining us here on oxy today talk about how to draw not just a veil over your own privacy check out the clothing and it would turn into skies if only the drones could see them a cloak of invisibility is coming your way but later in the program plus. i don't think people take it serious is the government takes it to be played on should we should we take it more serious i think ease up you know it's it's music new york resident downloads local opinion on whether it's right to file share more on that
9:13 am
opt to write. music secret laboratory to mccurdy was able to build a new most sophisticated robot which fortunately doesn't sound anything tunes mission to teach music creation why it should care about humans and. this is why you should care only on the. wealthy british style stock.
9:14 am
market why not come to. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike's concert for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune into kaiser report. or to just turn a quarter past the hour moscow time this is r t a britain's at risk of slipping into recession for the third time since the beginning of the global financial crisis four years ago the country's economy shrank by point three percent in the last quarter of two thousand and twelve and achieved zero growth the decline of the world's sixth largest economy was blamed on the recession in the eurozone whether affecting agriculture and a temporary drop in oil and gas output in the north sea the country would find
9:15 am
itself in a recession if the economy contracts again in the first quarter of twenty thirteen all the main global ratings agencies have placed britain on negative watch the director of the institute of economic affairs in london mark littlewood says the government should have a very different approach to such a burning issue. of course we need to bear in mind when you look back actually a couple of years later often these numbers are revised up or down so we shouldn't really trust them to the very last decimal point what we've seen it appears over twenty twelve is not the british economy absolutely tanking but basically flat lighting and that is pretty much been the picture for the last two years it's not a crushing recession but it's certainly not apparent back certainly what the coalition government here in the u.k. are doing isn't working if the i used to produce growth rates or two or three percent and indeed the government's independent forecasters suggested two years ago
9:16 am
that we would be experiencing those sort of levels in growth in the u.k. economy about now i'm afraid that was turned out. but let's be clear about this austerity target that you so long does think that the u.k. government has persuaded itself and most of the media and all of their political opponents to get there is some savage program of spending cuts being undertaken in the united kingdom that's a long way from the true. when you actually look at the numbers right of the political rhetoric the government is cutting spending by about one percent a year a pretty trivial amount and they are taking far too long to bring the budget back into balance but you also need i think a clearer plan but what's really going to attract business investment in the u.k. and what's going to make it easier for entrepreneurs. and while the movers and shakers of the money world have been debating the future of the global economy at the annual forum in davos and we caught up with russia's aluminum tycoon oleg
9:17 am
pascal for an exclusive interview and full version airing on sunday but for now a preview of what he had to say regarding russia's economic health. russia not just russia not just resource sector you know russia is a waste to put you into you know from what you are still to some pieces from a good culture to a tee of course. we should have been a better financial system but no one could grow it's not mushroom it's not enough to there were a. financial system it's a commitment there was a country coming from the state institutions sent to the. people who broke the infrastructure for the market for the market will already. be you on oprah to do some digging this is what we should do and it's not for and worse and it's not so you know for you know for foreign media or i know it's our homework and we haven't started yet.
9:18 am
the loudest thing coming from the historic baikonur cosmodrome of late has not been the ruler of russian rockets but rather raul over their environmental impact kazakhstan's demands are now threatening to derail russia's entire space program just a bit earlier in the program i spoke on this story with our two user we're going to go. for more than fifty years baikonur has been the launch pad for the first soviet and russian space exploration program of course men's first ever space flight took off from that very base but now from that a lustrous past it's facing an uncertain future with speculation of could even be abandoned now most cars currently leasing the cosmodrome for a hefty over one hundred million dollars but it's fears of environmental damage that's causing concern for the more specifically they are concerned over the launch
9:19 am
of proton rockets which with the fuel tanks which are shed by the craft after liftoff containing traces of rocket fuel which would you believe it is highly toxic but for moscow's point of view is a huge annual rental fee together with the jobs provided to local people make the leasing arrangements a highly positive one for us tonight but just days ago both the russian and foreign ministers tried to gloss over any signs of friction they have assured the media that any so-called space war is not happening and a mutual agreement has been reached for the future between the two countries many people know nasa budget has certainly been slashed by washington although india and china have got surging space programs we know that russia really has the busiest space program in the world that must mean they have some but must have some pretty big plans for the near or not too distant future russia does keep its options open first of all the are working on the new cosmodrome which is called of us. it means
9:20 am
eastern in russian and as you may have guessed it's going to be located in the far east near the border with china and the construction has begun just two years ago and russian space agency has cost months. should have two of its launch pads fully operational by twenty fifteen twenty eighteen and the latest and that will mark the beginning of the most step for the country's space exploration program in decades to the moon by twenty twenty says. most adding they want to establish lunar bases and finish it all off with a manned trip to mars by twenty thirty and if these plans seem too otherworldly to you well they certainly do not look as such to the russian government which has approved a budget of true trillion rubles that's roughly seventy five billion dollars for the space industry until twenty twenty or less going into right now with the r.t. world update will start with venezuela where a brutal prison riot has reportedly left at least fifty people dead in northwestern
9:21 am
as well or vice president nicolas maduro has described the incident as a tragedy but there's been no confirmation of the exact number of casualties and the riot erupted after local media reported that troops had been sent to europe on a prison to search for weapons the jail has seen a record number of violent incidents and is considered the most dangerous in the country. french forces have taken control of the airport in the northern million town of it's an islamist stronghold and comes after mali's government regain control of the city of homs bordering with the help of french troops they attempt to retake the northern part of the country from rebels a para says the military intervention in mali will continue for as long as is necessary. and washington is looking to beef up the number of drones manning the skies over the u.s. to tens of thousands by twenty twenty in all of this in the name of national security but a bigger brothers forcing many americans to search for creative ways to protect
9:22 am
their civil liberties artie's anastasio. as more. keeping a close eye on civilians with a little help from drones. in a move approved by congress in seven years the u.s. will help thirty thousand domestic drones monitoring its territory from the air that opens the door for a lot of duces of privacy. from not just the government but corporations and businesses too. in a fight for privacy this new york designer came up with a counter-surveillance clothing line intended to shield people from those watchful lenses a burka a scarf and a hoodie are the key garments in the collection this is a garment that's designed to be thermally reflective which means that he bounces off it and he just wants to for thermal imaging in particular this technology is used a lot on drones and he would use if there were drones harboring about manhattan anybody
9:23 am
who is out on the street is clearly traceable the idea of this collection is that putting on something like this. is a bit are. these parts of your body. become very hard to detect from the bomb from a potential fashion statement to a technology that could eventually be used in rescue operations or even on a battlefield i think we're addressing. a market tazz and been addressed it's a new area and it's sort of a crossover between tactical and fashion it adds a little extra coverage to the face out of harvey calls his consumer market unfashionably paranoid if you appear to me and i can see you i'm quite alright with that but if you appear in an automated systems and how it becomes a little more to your disadvantage because the state can be easily mind tracked and identified another counter-surveillance item in the collection the off pocket for a phone once
9:24 am
a mobile device is put inside there are no more signals going in and out the strength of the cell phone signal out of one. hundred goes down to zero in seconds the metalized fabric and that acts as a farraday cage to block the signals from the phone adam says this is a faster way to turn off your phone and block trucking since the introduction of the patriot act and since then there's been a large erosion of privacy i would say is not confined to the us either and this is a global problem to start a conversation and make people more aware of the growing trend of surveillance through fashion as adam's goal the designer admits the clothing line is not for everybody but those who want to adapt to these new realities could now be a step closer to avoiding the gaze of big brother and party new york. so is a file sharing a crime or a vital online necessity or the debates been raging for years certainly in america the government trying to hold the exchange of digital content for free. president
9:25 am
went out to gauge opinion. kim dotcom just launched his new file sharing service mag he says by using it you're saying yes to internet freedom is file sharing the future of the internet this week let's talk about that have you ever stolen a movie or music off the internet i plead the fifth i'll take that as a yes if you think that anything wrong with that you know why dude people get very angry about it and send people to jail that are not the problem is that they're being wrong is that people who need to make money don't make their money. should they just figure out a new way is it up to them or is that up to us to stop taking it. have you never stolen anything off the web for moral reasons or just because you never have never
9:26 am
have you know how to if it were easy and you did know how to would you do it more often if i knew how to do it i mean criminals every day doing bad things with expelling you know should it be free should music in movies be free no artist because by you but. i don't think people take it as serious as the governmentally rodeo six it's we should we should we take it more serious hard to ease up and you know it's it's music but it's not money coming out of your pocket like it has out of the artists or directors or studios. i don't know mobile size of the firm so i think it's been. sort of issue it moves with is how do we stop people from stealing though if it's so easy i think they need to appreciate the arts and they need and they will appreciate and steal music yeah i think it's better to give a dollar to the arts than you know a politician or your government yeah of course or cigarettes but maybe if some of
9:27 am
it will go to some kind of donation maybe it will inspire people to do so do you think though that you know the future is going to have a whole different landscape for intellectual property that will view it differently like it's kind of everyone's. i don't know i haven't really thought about it i mean i guess if you write a song you'd still your so right you should still have get credit for it at least ninety nine cents and you had so much to educate you should get something whether or not you think file sharing is the future of the internet the bottom line is enough people do it to pose a serious threat to current business model. i just second here we delve deeply with the help of technologies update into the world that is beyond the reach of our five senses fascinating stuff just.
